THE SCHOOL

The successful applicant would be joining a small and very successful all through SEN school that caters for children and teenagers with Autism. The school has exceptional modern facilities (built in 2014) and is very accessible on public transport from much of South West & Central London and Berkshire.

The school benefits from a stable, strong and highly supportive SLT and the headteacher has taken the school from strength to strength. There is a lot of investment in staff CPD to ensure that pupils have the best quality of education and that staff get the support required to enable them to be creative, effective, comfortable and happy in their work.

The SLT are adept at spotting talent and nurturing this to build up teaching and leadership capacity and this means that there are plenty of opportunities for advancement for staff who are dedicated and ambitious.

This would be the ideal starting point for a mainstream teacher seeking to make the move into SEN as the needs of students are moderate to complex but the support, induction, in job training and CPD investment that the school offers will ensure a well managed and successful transition. This school has a proven track record for supporting and developing staff from mainstream schools, quickly bringing their SEN practise in line with OfSTESD's criteria for good and outstanding teaching.
